Just learned that even tiny gaps between your siding and window frames can let in moisture, insects, and drafts - basically a mini highway for bugs and mold, yuck. Heard silicone caulk works wonders, but um, anyone got better tricks or tips?

Silicone's decent, but have you considered low-expansion foam? It fills deeper gaps better and stays flexible longer. Just be careful - overdo it and you'll have a mess on your hands... learned that the hard way myself.
